What if a relevant potential supervisor is going to have a maternal leave?

Hello everyone

Hope you are all doing very well!

I contacted one of the potential supervisors, and she said she couldn't take me because she will be on maternity leave soon. Is it ok to email her again and say I'm flexible to start the year after the coming one?

Can I have an earlier offer for starting in Sep 2023? Is that possible?

And if you have any advice for taking an acceptance letter to start one year later, please do so

Appreciate all the help!!

Quote From rewt:
I don't think you will have much of a problem if you have already secured a scholarship and a supervisor. Check on your offer if they have a minimum GPA, if not just submit both scores. They must see potential if they have offered you a PhD in the first place.

Thank you rewt!

yeah they didn't specify a minimum GPA for masters. So, I guess that mean I don't have to explain why I got this GPA in my personal statement, right?

Hi

I would like to apply for a PhD, I got a high undergrad GPA but a low one in my one year master. I have a doctor who will supervise my PhD research from the same school I'm applying and I have full funded scholarship.

Should I be worried about my acceptance? Should I only upload my undergrad transcript (the minimum entry requirement) even though I mentioned in the application that I have a master?

Please let me know what you think

How does undergraduate gpa matter for PhD if you have Master degree?

Hi

What if I got a high undergrad GPA but a low one in my master? Should I explain why I got this low MSc GPA in my personal statement? or it doesn't matter
